passage from Ernest Hemingway fits the moment. In “The Sun Also Rises,” one character asks, “How did you go bankrupt?” and another responds: “Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.”
The exchange captures Hillary Clinton’s red alert. She’s been going politically bankrupt for a long time, and now faces the prospect of sudden collapse.
If she’s got a winning defense, she better be quick about it. The ghosts of scandals past are gaining on her and time is not on her side.
The compelling claims that she and Bill Clinton sold favors while she was secretary of state for tens of millions of dollars for themselves and their foundation don’t need to meet the legal standard for bribery. She’s on political trial in a country where Clinton Fatigue alone could be a fatal verdict.
After 25 years of corner-cutting and dishonest behavior, accumulation is her enemy. Each day threatens to deliver the straw that breaks the camel’s back. It may already have happened and we’re just waiting for public opinion to catch up to the facts.
Meanwhile, her Houdini skills are being tested big time.
Hillary’s one big advantage is obvious — she’s the only serious contender for the Democratic nomination, and she beats most GOP opponents in head-to-head matchups. But everything else weighs against her, including momentum.

Couldn’t it be Dear Leader himself flushing Hag Clinton? He surely has no love for any Clinton, who he probably views as filthy animals, like dogs. And as a muslim he must surely detest her uppity female ambition.
I agree with that much, if Obozo or ValJar are behind it, it’s personal, not ideological. Although the two have often overlapped when it comes to their Enemies List.
Sounds like another "Hard Choice".
Hillary’s one big advantage is obvious — she’s the only serious contender for the Democratic nomination, and she beats most GOP opponents in head-to-head matchups.
That is an indictment of the low intelligence voters. She will have several million illegals voting for her in 2016.
Summer Solstice, June 21, is a holy Wiccan day, perfect symbolism.
Midsummer/Litha/Summer Solstice ~ Sunday, June 21st
All the more reason to wring hands less.
When Bill was on the ticket (D)'s were unified behind him and scandals would allow him to be impeached in House, but still not convicted in the Senate.
Hillary does not have that kind of endearment in the party and any lower rung (D) does not want to have to petition HRC for favors. Bill was a backslapping cad. HRC by contrast is only a power drunk hag.
In the end so many $ are going to be lost on her; she'll bag out for health reasons, and it will piss off and tap out donors enough to not have more $ for the person who ultimately steps in when she is sidelined.
FReegards!
I don't think she would've chosen to have it out at all, but given that the public attention span is probably a week or so, and the klintonistas will support her no matter what, by the time it can affect the election, it will be labeled "Old News". That is why we need to keep Schweizer's book on the Best Seller lists, so that her bribery and treachery remain in the news cycles through the campaign. I'm sure that this is the tip of the iceberg and I pray more stories come out.
Incidentally, I've read that SeeBS (CBS) has yet to report her uranium deal connection with the ruskies.
She needs Brian Williams as her campaign manager. He certainly has sold a lot of bullshit over the years.
On another site a fellow mentioned that this business seems like a fight between the Sinaloa cartel and the Zetas.
I think thats whats happening. Two mobs are fighting it out, the rest of us, and the Republican party too, are just spectators.
